Khaby Lame emerges World Cup Brand Ambassador

Meanwhile, Khaby Lame was earlier named the 2022 FIFA World Cup Brand Ambassador for the biggest bank in the Middle East and Africa, Qatar National Bank (QNB).

The announcement was made at the headquarters of the bank in Qatar ahead of the global showpiece, which kicks off on November 20.

The partnership is expected to help expand the QNB Group’s status as the official Middle East and Africa Supporter of the FIFA World Cup.

Brazil stars fire back at Roy Keane

Sports Brief earlier reported that several Brazil players have responded to Roy Keane's criticism of their exuberant celebrations against South Korea.

The five-time World Cup winners shell-shocked the South Koreans, scoring four goals inside 36 minutes during their round of 16 victory on Monday.

Goals from Vinicius Junior, Neymar, Richarlison and Paqueta were enough to see off the hapless Asian side, who were lucky not to concede more in the first half.
